How many people have actually switched their majors after going to college?
I just want to know if it is fairly common for people to get into college and then decide that what they had previously chosen is not what they would like to do anymore?
What path should I choose?
I am now 27. I completed my BA in 2020 with 5.7 CGPA and dropped my MA course midway in 2022. It's shame that I am sitting idle in these last 3.5 years and still not able to figure out what to do. I just hesitate and keep on thinking before trying to attempt. I have no work experience. I am a clueless person who has no idea about my strengths and what am I capable of. Actually I am stuck between choices. I don't know whether should I crack govt exams like bank, SSC or do something else? Hesitant to crack govt exam because process of selection is long and success rate is low. I am hesitant to do other things due to no work experience and skills. I fear being harassed and scolded at job. I literally have no hobbies other than watching reels on Instagram, youtube shorts and making expenses tracker on google sheets. I cannot even drive any vehicle that I could take up gig work. I am also a person who doesn't wants to compromise. I don't want to leave my city because I cannot share room with others. I also don't want to commute very long distances if within my city. I also have to look after my dog. I don't want to do any course now since I am currently in dire need of money.
Military or Gap Year or Grad School?
Would joining the military (USAF) be beneficial to me right now? I’m graduating with my BS in forensic psychology, and I don’t know what I want now.
What’s one thing you're glad you didn’t change in your life?
Some choices stay with us for a reason. Even when everything else shifted, they held their ground. What’s that one thing you’re still thankful you kept?
